Community

 "Alone, we can do so little; together, we can do so much." — Helen Keller

What is this community and who is it for?

Welcome to our community: a purpose-led virtual space designed to help you feel resourced, gain clarity, and move through the challenges you face with greater ease, intentionality and support. We believe emphatically in the collective power of community for bringing about change and turbo-boosting our impact.

This is a space for purpose-led individuals working across diverse fields such as climate, social justice, nature, the arts, education and business...(to name just a few). It will resonate if you are driven to do good and feel strongly called to create change by shifting societal systems towards being more generative, respectful, equitable, hopeful and just.

About you

While you feel passionate about your purpose, there are aspects of life and work that currently feel stuck. Maybe you are:

  • Struggling to define a clear vision in your work or personal life.

  • Feeling deeply called, but unsure how you can be more impactful.

  • Lacking confidence, or feeling a sense of imposter syndrome.

  • Pushing up against procrastination, perfectionism or people-pleasing

  • Burnt-out, under-resourced or unclear of what builds your resilience.

  • Finding aspects of your leadership challenging or overwhelming.

  • Facing challenges in your professional relationships.

  • Or something else...

Ultimately, you want to fulfil your potential, achieve meaningful goals, and amplify your impact, while also feeling clarity, calm and ease.

You would love:

  • An inspiring long term vision for your life and work.

  • A clear understanding of the challenges and obstacles in front of you.

  • Confidence and self-assurance in yourself and your path

  • To feel well resourced, with clear boundaries, and a greater sense of what contributes to your resilience.

  • To powerfully and authentically step into your role as a leader.

  • To navigate relationships with confidence and ease.

  • A supportive community to hold space for the human side of being a change-maker.

What does being a part of this community look like?

The community will be open in April (2025) with a special early joiners option. You will be able to join the community for a month at a time, rolling, for as long or a short time as serves you. However, we recommend a minimum of 3 months to benefit most from the community.

Each month, we’ll offer a rich menu of coaching, embodiment, reflective writing, breath work and more. We welcome you to join us in as many of the sessions per week serve you. Everything is opt-in.

  • Weekly group ‘hot seat’ coaching to tackle challenges and unlock growth.

  • Fortnightly gentle breathwork and embodiment to connect with your body's wisdom and release stress.

  • Fortnightly reflective writing/journaling session to cultivate clarity and safeguard important reflective space.

  • Community connection opportunities to get to know us and each other

Additional support

  • A closed WhatsApp community for sharing wins, challenges, and insights.

  • Reflection forms to track progress, stay aligned with your goals, and prepare for the group coaching

  • Optional 1-1 coaching sessions at additional cost.

Why join us?

  • Because we understand that being a change-maker can feel lonely and isolating - and we recognise the incredible value of a supportive and inspiring community both to our sense of wellbeing, and professional effectiveness.

  • Because we believe in the value of creating trusting, open, non-judgemental spaces in which we feel comfortable and trusting enough to express ourselves, our needs and our aspirations fully.

  • Because there is so much more to ‘succeeding’ and ‘progress’ than getting things done. How we show up, our ‘being’ state, and the quality of our relationships, matter enormously. This programme is designed to help you align your inner and outer worlds, which will in turn help you feel a greater sense of connection, ease and integrity.

  • Because when you’re stacked at work, and you're busy at home, making time to reflect and create clarity around your vision, or your challenges, can be very difficult indeed. Yet we know how important doing the deep work is. Having space held for you to dive into your challenges and your dreams means you make time where you otherwise wouldn’t. We know- we’ve been there!

  • Ultimately, because what you bring to this world matters. Because YOU matter. You’re a brilliant, passionate, caring, intelligent changemaker (we know that because you’re reading this). As changemakers, we are all working to create the society we know is possible. What if we walked the road together?

"When we come together with a common purpose, we can create something far greater than what any one of us could do alone." — Barack Obama

Why Sol & Joey?

We have over 25 years of combined personal and professional experience in coaching, facilitation, meditation, mindfulness, NLP, positive intelligence, somatics, & breathwork. We love, and deeply believe in these disciplines as tools of creating powerful change.

Professionally, we are also passionate changemakers, having both dedicated our working lives for the last 20+ years, in various capacities to a more just, equitable society.

Most importantly of all though, we offer this space and do this work because, we care. We care deeply about the world around us, and we care not just about the world we are creating but how we get there matters too. We’ve both felt at times deeply stuck, isolated, uncertain and unsure. Through our own journeys we have discovered that the biggest blocker for most of us isn’t external or systemic (although these are undeniably real) it’s internal. How we think and what we believe is possible for ourselves plays a profound role in shaping our reality.

Which is why we’re creating a powerful community space for changemakers to come together as they do the inner work alongside the outer work. We hope you’ll consider joining us. You can learn more about Sol at thrivewithsol.com and Joey at sustainableyou.co.uk.

  • Working with Joey during the most informative decade of my life - my 20s - has been transformational for my leadership style. I was calling out for someone to support my journey in a new form of leadership - one which embraces vulnerability, empathy, compassion and power-with rather than power-over. Joey was fantastic in nurturing this within me. She encourages you to explore your brightest possibilities, whilst honouring your own boundaries and the feedback of your mind and body. Her support has been an important part of my journey from a young founder to the CEO of an organisation with international operations. I would strongly advise working with Joey

    - Katie Hodgetts, The Resilience Project

  • I had the immense privilege of working with Joey for an entire year, and the transformation I’ve experienced under her guidance is nothing short of remarkable. In just 12 months, with her unwavering support, deep wisdom, and genuine care, I was able to break through some of my most challenging blocks that had been holding me back from achieving my goals. Her coaching became a foundational source of inspiration and possibility in both my personal and professional life, providing me with the clarity and confidence I had been lacking for years

This is for you if:

  • You feel called to create change but need clarity or support.

  • You value community and want to grow alongside others.

  • You’re open to coaching, reflection, and embodiment practices.

This is not for you if:

  • You prefer working through challenges alone.

  • You’re seeking quick fixes, not long-term growth.

  • You’re not interested in self-reflection or shared purpose.

  • This space is for those ready to grow together. If that’s you, welcome. If not, that’s okay too.

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has."

— Margaret Mead

Our vision:

To create a thriving, supportive community where purpose-driven individuals can grow, find clarity, and amplify their impact—together. We believe in aligning inner growth with outer action to build a more equitable, hopeful, and just world.
